Zemanta the Firefox add-on I use frequently to enhance blog entries with relevant images, videos, links and tags have released "Balloons", although not literally. Balloons are dynamic overlays that allow any blogger or online publisher to integrate multimedia content into their pages.

Balloons give bloggers and publishers access to the openly licensed Freebase database and content from YouTube, Google Maps and MusicBrainz.

If you are using Zemanta on your blog, you can turn on balloons by selecting Preferences in your Zemanta widget and check the box that says "More Info". - avc.com, A VC, Jul 2009

The tools available already I find really useful, Balloons will enhance the experience further by linking to other content without actually forcing people to leave this site. If you are a blogger and want to add more to what you publish I rate Zemanta highly!
